Would Lin Tianhua be interested in where Lin Sanqi obtained these precious medicinal materials and ingredients?
it's out of the question.
A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier.
Business people have eight hundred minds. Similarly, has Lin Tianhua ever thought about mastering Lin Sanqi's purchase channels and one day replacing them?
No one is willing to be a "professional manager" for the rest of his life. After every manager has mastered certain channels, connections, and funds, all he wants to do is start an independent business and be his own boss.
Even if it is to poach the old employer, the Chinese people lack the spirit of contract and will not take into account the "Agreement on the Prohibition of Horizontal Competition".
But no matter how Lin Tianhua privately inquired about the shipping channels of these cordyceps, ginseng, shark fins, abalone, and tangerine peels, there was no clue at all. This was what he was puzzled about.
He doesn't know anything else. Lingnan Hall is not the Oriental Selection and cannot be copied because the owner of Lingnan Hall is a time traveler...
There are many people who have the same worries as Lin Tianhua, such as the three largest companies in the domestic cordyceps industry.
While Lin Sanqi and others were having a meeting, Tongruicheng Company, which controls nearly half of the mid-to-high-end Cordyceps market, was also having a meeting.
Cordyceps sinensis is a huge market with an annual output value of 50 to 60 billion. From the most primitive herdsmen in the upstream to the most basic dealers in the downstream, there are at least hundreds of thousands of people across the country who depend on Cordyceps for a living, so no one person or company can I can eat such a big piece of cake.
But every industry will definitely produce several leading companies. Even if they cannot monopolize, they will at least take away most of the profits.
The three largest companies in the Cordyceps industry are Shangzhongda Company, Hewanwei Company, and Tongruicheng Company.
These three companies monopolize the most profitable mid-to-high-end Cordyceps market, providing one-stop services from acquisition to sales. Among them, Tongruicheng Company is the strongest, accounting for half of the market share.
As for who the real bosses behind these three companies are, this is a secret that will never be made public.
Only practitioners in the Cordyceps industry know that if you want to get started in the ordinary Cordyceps business, it is relatively simple. Just prepare money and wait for the Cordyceps picking season to go to the plateau to buy it.
But there is a premise, ordinary Cordyceps, which are those third- and fourth-level products.
Anyone who dares to buy mid-to-high-end Cordyceps, such as Cordyceps with more than 0.5 grams per stick, will not be able to collect it. Even if you get the goods, it will be difficult to transport your goods out of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. (literal meaning)
Because someone has a monopoly on this area, the cordyceps picked by herdsmen are classified. The high-end ones are taken away by the three major companies, and the low-end ones will flow into the market.
Tongruicheng Company, headquartered in the capital, is one of the leaders.
At this time, the conference room of Tongruicheng Company was filled with smoke, and a group of company executives in suits and ties were frowning and smoking.
Sales Director Li Maocai said helplessly:
"I sent people to check almost all the five provinces of Tibet, Qinghai, Gansu, Sichuan and Yunnan, but I didn't find anyone secretly shipping. This is really strange."< br>
An executive asked: "Could those Cordyceps come from abroad? After all, Bhutan, Nepal, and Assange also produce small amounts of Cordyceps."
(The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is a geographical term)
Li Maocai took out a gift box with the words "Lingnan Hall" printed on it.
"Everyone, take a look. Each of these Cordyceps weighs more than one gram. It belongs to the very rare Cordyceps King level. And it can be clearly seen that these Cordyceps come from Yushu or Naqu area, and they are definitely only found in China."
Bai Zhiyong, the president of Tongruicheng Company, asked with a sullen face:
"It seems that Lingnan Hall is not a fierce dragon, but it can't cross the river. Since the goods are from Yushu and Nagqu, we will investigate them strictly. If we find out who is bulk goods privately and violates the agreement we made at that time, do you know what to do?"
A group of company executives frowned collectively, their faces as bitter as bitter gourds.
Li Maocai grabbed his hair and felt like he was going crazy:
"This is the strangest thing. I compared the purchase lists of Nagqu and Yushu. Compared with the output in previous years, there is almost no big difference. It is impossible for Lingnan Hall to find a large Cordyceps field in the mountains, right? ”
Another executive also interjected at this time:
"I have contacted Lingnan Tang Company before, pretending to buy Cordyceps sinensis, but the other party said very loudly, saying that 120 million is not much, and can supply 102 billion, as long as we can afford the money, which shows that the other party has the money. There are more cordyceps than we thought.”
At this time, President Bai put out the cigarette butt with all his strength:
"The Pearl River Delta and Xiangjiang have always been important markets for Cordyceps. There are many rich people there and the volume of shipments is also large. If the Cordyceps market is taken over by Lingnan Hall, we will suffer heavy losses. I am afraid the big boss will be dissatisfied. We will all eat melons then.
In this way, Li Maocai, you continue to send people to investigate who is supplying Lingnan Hall. These cordyceps are all new products this year. As long as the other party does something, there will be clues. Let's all discuss how to cause trouble for Lingnan Hall. ”
One of the executives laughed and said: "There is nothing more troublesome for a company than tax. I don't believe they will avoid tax evasion."
Another executive nodded and said:
"Yes, check the tax. Maybe we can find out where their purchase channels are? If they can't provide purchase invoices or the like, the tax rate is horribly high. Lingnan Hall is not a charity hall. Is it to contribute to national tax revenue? ?”
"Not only in terms of taxation, but also in industry and commerce, health, food and drug administration, fire protection, etc., you can check if they have any problems."
"If it doesn't work, we can forge a few test reports and say that their Cordyceps contains heavy metals and toxic substances. In short, it will not allow them to sell the goods smoothly."......
In the small conference room of Lingnan Tang Company.
Lin Tianhua is also expressing his worries:
"I'm not afraid of anything else. We have Cordyceps safety reports produced by five independent testing agencies. We take the initiative to declare taxes and pay the tax in full. However, if the source of Cordyceps and ginseng is not solved, it will become a hidden danger."
Lin Sanqi thought so. After all, he didn't just stop after making a fortune. He wanted to do long-term business in the future.
Therefore, the issue of the origin of the medicinal materials must be solved. If he is arrested as a smuggler later, it will be even more unclear.
At this time, my uncle asked: "Xiaoqi, you can't say the source of your purchase clearly, can you?"
Lin Sanqi nodded repeatedly: "Yeah, you can't say it, it won't work if you say it. If this channel is controlled by others, then I won't be able to receive goods in the future."
My uncle must have had an idea at this time, so he asked:
"Only when you know yourself and your enemy can you be prepared. Tell me, what is the process of Cordyceps trading?"
Lin Tianhua took the initiative and said:
"I have really learned about this. There are generally two sources of Cordyceps. One is artificial cultivation, but it is very difficult to cultivate. It is affected by the geographical environment and climate and altitude. In addition, artificial cultivation mainly requires the preparation of bacteria and insects. .
The strains are easy to solve, but the most difficult thing is the source of insects. Currently, insects can only be collected from the wild. Artificial breeding of insects is very difficult, so the output of artificially grown Cordyceps has not increased, and the price is not as expensive as wild Cordyceps.
The overwhelming majority is wild Cordyceps, which grows in plateau areas. It is also produced in my country's Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, including several small countries on the border. Herders need to go to the wild to look for it root by root.
When herdsmen find Cordyceps, there are two ways to sell it. One is to wait for traders to come to the village to buy it; the other is to go to the Cordyceps trading market in the city to do business. This link is equivalent to the purchase and sale of raw materials.
There are two destinations for Cordyceps. One is for traders to purchase and process it themselves, and then open a shop in the Cordyceps market for public sale. Now there are many people selling Cordyceps live on mobile phones, which is equivalent to being self-employed.
Another method is for various companies to purchase Cordyceps, then refine it, and finally sell it. This sales is just like tobacco and alcohol. There are national general agents, provincial agents, and city agents layer by layer, and it is a corporate operation. ”
While Uncle Lin was listening, he was thinking quickly, and at this time he caught a loophole in the transaction.
"Can I understand it this way? Suppose Qizai can carry a box of money and go to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to buy it from herdsmen's homes? Process and sell the Cordyceps collected by himself?"
Lin Tianhua nodded: "Theoretically yes, as long as you have the relevant business license, it is not illegal to purchase by yourself."
Uncle Lin laughed after hearing this: "Then the supply problem that Qizai is most worried about has been solved?"
Lin Musen, Lin Tianhua, and Lin Sanqi understood in seconds, and they all followed suit, obviously knowing what to do next.
Yin Lianyi was a little anxious after hearing this: "Grandpa, why is it solved? I can't understand?"
Uncle Lin took a look at this beautiful female financial manager and thought that this little girl is pretty and has a good temperament. It seems that she should be Qizai's girlfriend, right? So his attitude was extremely kind.
If the old man knew that this little girl was from Pingle Village, I wonder if he would still be able to laugh.
"Girl, don't you understand? In fact, it is very simple to break the situation. We only need to set up a branch or office in the place where Cordyceps is produced and openly purchase Cordyceps from the outside."
Yin Lianyi thought for a moment and then asked: "I heard that there are tyrants in every industry. What if no one sells Cordyceps to us?"
Lin Sanqi quickly explained:
"It doesn't matter if anyone sells Cordyceps to us. All we want is to pretend, and then make false purchase accounts, and finally pretend to ship the goods one container at a time to give outsiders an impression. Our Lingnan Tang Company has acquired a lot of Cordyceps. Is this trick called hiding from the sky? ”
When Yin Lianyi heard this, his eyes lit up:
"Yes, grandpa, you are so smart. We can also set up offices in Northeast China, Hujian and other places and pretend to be purchasing local specialties."
"Yeah, hahaha~~~"
The old man just couldn't stand the compliments from beautiful women, and so did Uncle Lin. He was laughing so hard that his dentures almost fell off.
As a boss, you can just use your words. Now that you have countermeasures, how to tell the truth is the business of General Manager Lin Tianhua.
What did my uncle think of at this time and said to Lin Tianhua:
"Ahua, Qizai said he wants to open a pharmaceutical factory. You can discuss this matter later. I don't think it is that reliable." (End of Chapter)
